Good Times and Cleveland,

A. M. Brawnor, who represents big
distilling company of Baltimore on the
road and travels extensively West and
South, was en- route homo from six
weeks tour the other day and gave glow
ing accounts Of the business outlook.
"Sales are better and collections more
prompt" he said, ethan they have been
for years, and buyers seem to have con-
fidence in continuation of the good
times they arc enjoying. If this state of
things keeps up all the politicians in the
country can't prevent the reelection Of
Cleveland in 1888. Whether he has con-
tributed to bring it about or not he is
getting good deal of credit for the
prosperity that prevails and is growing
stronger daily with business men of all
political shades"
